GENERAL BTI compactors are designed to mount on mini-excavators, backhoes and excavators. BTI compactors combine centrifical force, down pressure, and vibration to work as soil compactors or pile/sheet drivers. The compactor has 3 basic components: • Mounting Bracket: attaches the compactor to the carrier boom and is complete with adjustable mounting pins. • Rubber Isolators: act as suspension between the base and the mount & isolate the compactor forces from the carrier.

HAZARD ALERTS Danger, Warning, and Caution are hazard alerts used in this manual and on the compactor decals to identify hazards on or near the carrier and compactor. Danger - Immediate hazards, which WILL result in severe personal injury or death if the proper precautions are not taken. Warning - Hazards or unsafe practices, which COULD result in personal injury or death if the proper precautions are not taken.
HAZARD ALERTS Do not operate the compactor with personnel in the immediate area of the carrier and compactor. Note and avoid all hazards and obstructions such as overhangs, ledges, slide areas, electrical lines, underground cables, water mains, gas lines, etc. When operating close to electrical lines, underground cables, water mains or gas lines, contact the responsible authority and request assistance.
HAZARD ALERTS Head Protection Foot Protection Eye Protection Hearing Protection Do not operate or service the compactor unless you are qualified. Avoid loose fitting clothing, loose or uncovered long hair, jewelry and loose personal articles. These can get caught in moving parts. Jewelry may also ground a live circuit. Know and use the protective equipment that is to be worn when operating or servicing the carrier.
SIZING THE COMPACTOR The compactor must be sized properly for both the carrier on which it will be mounted and the work to be done. Sizing the Compactor based on the Type of Work Most applications require the soil under a road or load bearing surface to be compacted to 95% or greater than the proctor density. This can be achieved with a compactor, provided the soil is the correct type and moisture. Uniform materials like clay and sand are difficult to compact.
SIZING THE COMPACTOR Always use a compactor sized to the carrier. A compactor that is too small for the carrier will damage the compactor, while a compactor too big will damage the carrier. Ensure you have the proper installation kit for attaching the compactor and that the carrier's hydraulic system meets the compactor flow and pressure requirements. The carrier that is selected to operate the compactor must have sufficient reach to compact the deepest area of the trench or excavation.
TYPICAL HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS To run, a compactor needs hydraulic flow in one direction within a working pressure range.
TYPICAL HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS Carrier with Auxiliary Circuit Often a carrier is equipped with an auxiliary control valve (see Figure 1), this valve can be adjusted to provide the correct amount of oil flow to the compactor. A pressure relief cartridge can also be installed to protect the hydraulic components. Make sure that oil is not routed back through the return port of this auxiliary valve. Instead, send the oil directly back to the tank, via the cooler and filter.
TYPICAL HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS Carrier without Auxiliary Circuit If the carrier does not have an auxiliary control valve (see Figure 2), a priority flow control valve must be installed to direct oil flow from the normal circuit to the compactor. The priority flow control valve is usually equipped with a flow adjustment and pressure relief. These auxiliary control valves often need a check valve on the regulated port to completely close the flow.
INSTALLATION There is no separate pressure adjustment on the compactor. The compactor's supply oil should be directed out the left side of the boom and the return line back on the boom's right side. A combination of hoses and steel tubing is recommended to keep the installation neat and cost effective. Hoses and tubes should be secured to the carrier boom with steel clamps. Attaching mounting clamps or bulkhead fittings to the ends of the tubes will prevent the tubes from sliding.
SETTING FLOW & PRESSURE For a compactor to operate properly it requires a specific oil flow and sufficient oil pressure. TC51L/FC: 1400 psi @ 7.2-12 USgpm Oil Flow & Oil Pressure (97 bar) @ (27.2-45.4 l/min) TC51H/FC: 1200 psi @ 10.7-18 USgpm (83 bar) @ (40.4-68 l/min) TC71: 1400 psi @ 11.7-16.3 USgpm (97 bar) @ (44.2-61.6 l/min) TC71FC: 1600 psi @ 11.7-22 USgpm (110 bar) @ (44.2-83.2 l/min) TC92: 1500 psi @ 20.6-25.2 USgpm (103 bar) @ (77.9-95.3 l/min) TC152L: 2200 psi @ 26.7-32.7 USgpm (152 bar) @ (100.
SETTING FLOW & PRESSURE Now adjust the oil flow on the carrier, so the flow meter reads: TC51L/FC: 8-12 USgpm (30-45 l/min) TC51H/FC: 12-18 gpm (44-68 l/min) TC71: 13-17 USgpm (49-63 l/min) TC71FC: 13-22 gpm (49-83 l/min) TC92: 18-24 USgpm (68-91 l/min) TC152L: 25-31 USgpm (95-117 l/min) TC152H: 35-43 gpm (132-163 l/min) TC301: 35-43 USgpm (132-163 l/min) TC301H: 50-61 gpm (189-231 l/min) Note: Better compaction rates occur at higher flows.
START-UP Carrier oil should be clean and in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. After mounting the compactor on the boom and connecting the lines, bleed all air from the hydraulic system. Initially pump grease to the pins in the bracket until it oozes out around the pins. Then grease with 10-15 shots daily. Check torque of bolts and fasteners at installation and again after the first 10 hours of operation.
OPERATION Compaction of Materials BTI compactors achieve material compaction by using centrifical force and vibration to displace air and water pockets in the material. Compaction performance depends on 3 items: • Type and size of material being compacted • Moisture content of the material • Depths of lifts being compacted Use a short trial of the compactor to determine the optimum depth of lift and speed of boom travel to achieve the required density.
OPERATION Shut off the compactor and lift it into the air to a new position, or using minimum boom down-force slide the compactor along the ground. Avoid dragging the compactor's plate across the material surface ('ironing') while the motor is running. Forces exerted on the compactor by 'ironing' can cause premature failure.
OPERATION Shut-off Compactor Before Lifting When compaction is complete, shut off compactor before lifting it from the ground. Do not pound the ground with the compactor. Do not start in the middle of an un-compacted area. Always start at the edge, near a solid wall, bank, or a previously compacted area.
OPERATION Maintenance- Every 40 Hours of Operation Check hoses for wear and leaks, replace and tighten as required. The eccentric housing is filled with gear oil. This oil must be changed after the initial 50 hours. Then change oil every year. Use 80W90 gear oil. Do not overfill the oil reservoir. Check the rubber isolators for cracks or fatigue. Clean away any soil and material that has built up in this area. Check that mounting pins and bushings are receiving lubrication.
